Corralejo Beach

Large, heavenly beaches in the north of Fuerteventura

Very close to the tourist hub of Corralejo, in the north-east of Fuerteventura, you can enjoy the internationally known 'Grandes Playas' - Big Beaches – of Corralejo; nine kilometres of divine beaches bordered by the Corralejo Dunes, the largest in the Canary Islands. This is a place where the turquoise waters lap a coast covered by fine white sand formed naturally from the erosion of sea shells. Excellent for exfoliation, this particular form of sand has made these beaches an authentic natural spa, with views of the islands of Los Lobos and Lanzarote.

Family beaches and sporting beaches close to Corralejo

Corralejo’s Big Beaches are formed by a number of beaches in the Corralejo Natural Park, accessible from the FV-1 motorway, with parking alongside. The small coves towards the south end are perfect for nudist bathing in complete privacy. Travel northwards and the beaches are more family-friendly and have services such as lifeguards, in Burro beach for example, or a more complete range including sunbed and parasol hire in the Bajo Negro beach in front of the Riu hotels. El Médano beach, the closest to Corralejo, is mainly used by those who practise water sports such as kite boarding and windsurf.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Do not use soap or gel in the showers located at the entrance to the beach.
Try to use ocean-friendly sun creams.
Pets are prohibited at most beaches. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
